I would like to Archive old profiles (Say older than 1 year profiles) from my Adobe AEP box. How can I do that?

@shriankur . Unfortunately, there is no Out of the box solution - so you cannot archive old dataset in AEP, you can only set Time To Live (TTL) which will permanently delete data in AEP.

 

Hope this answers your question.

Hi @shriankur 
Please see the following documentation regarding Profile Service time-to-live (TTL). Profile Service lets users apply time-to-live (TTL) on data in the Profile Store. TTL is a mechanism that limits the amount of time data lives within a dataset. This lets you automatically remove data from the Profile Store that is no longer useful for your use cases.

 

However, this functionality is only available on Experience Event (EE) Data. At this point, there is no TTL on Profile Attribute data. This may come at some time in a future release.

Hope this helps!
Joshua

There is OOB feature as mentioned by @joshua_eisikovi but it will permanently delete data from AEP. If you would like to archive it for later use, then possible best if you can export it outside of AEP via S3 and store it in external system. Technically, the other alternative (which is not that great btw) will be to create an archive schema and store the data there, but I don't recommend this.

@adobechat Could you please provide a link to the documentation where it is described how to export complete profile data and experience events to S3/CSV?
